I am actually a bit suprised that Ian Gillan Band is not here already. I mean Deep Purple, Rainbow and Blackmore's Night are far less progressive than Gillan's jazz rock project wih albums like Clear Air Turbulence.

Personally, I would want to put them in Jazz-Rock/Fusion because of their first couple of albums, but maybe Prog Related is more appropriate considering the later albums?

BTW If or when they are added does this mean that only the albums Child In Time, Clear Air Turbulence, Scarabus and Live At Budokan will be added to the discography or will it be possible to add the albums that were released under the Gillan name as well? Or is that regarded as a separate band completely?

No, the general consensus was to add ONLY the albums credited to the Ian Gillan Band, and not those credited to Gillan, which are basically hard rock (though very good, and with prog undertones). That means that if someone adds any Gillan albums, they will have to be removed.

I was lucky enough to see IGB on more than 20 occasions mainly at the Marquee Wardour Street..the only difference I can remember the use of two different guitarists apart from that the basis of the band remained the same.Not bad for a 62 year old Definitely a prog bad but not sure what type.Street fighting man still remains a classic.
